[Legacy Report] RF Technology Used to Save Lives on the Road

#32nd #ANNUAL #SYMPOSIUM #AND #MINI-SHOW

Distracted driving is a complex problem that requires a technical solution. Over 3,000 people are killed in
automobile accidents every year in the U.S. alone directly resulting from drivers distracted by their mobile
devices. There has been a tremendous social push to educate drivers on the problem and yet many continue to
text behind the wheel. RF technology can detect and deter distracted motorists from picking up their mobile
phones and ultimately save countless lives.
Scott Schober is the President and CEO of Berkeley Varitronics Systems (BVS), a 45 year-old New Jersey-based privately held
company and leading provider of advanced, world-class wireless test and security solutions. Since the beginning of Mr. Schober’s
BVS tenure in 1989, the company’s product line of wireless test and security instruments has increased to over 100 products with a
core focus on Wi-Fi, Cellular, WiMAX, LTE, IoT and advanced radio devices. As an experienced software engineer, Schober has
developed cellular test instruments used for measuring, optimizing and plotting signal coverage, primarily for the initial cellular buildout
throughout the United States. Scott’s recent focus has been development (patent pending) of BVS’ cell phone detection tools, used
to enforce a ‘no cell phone policy’ in various markets including transportation, government, corporate, military, educational,
correctional and law enforcement. Thousands of these security tools have been deployed throughout every state in the U.S. and around
the world.
